2. AbeBooks' Customer Agreement

Last Revised December 16, 2014

Thank you for choosing AbeBooks for purchasing those much sought after books!

This agreement between you and AbeBooks Inc. ("AbeBooks") explains how you can use our Web sites and buy books listed on our Web sites. Use of AbeBooks Web sites is governed by this agreement. By registering as an AbeBooks customer, you acknowledge and signify that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by this agreement.

1. Who is AbeBooks?
AbeBooks operates a number of Web sites, including but not limited to abebooks.com, abebooks.de, abebooks.fr, abebooks.co.uk, abebooks.it and iberlibro.com, (collectively the "Web sites") that allow registered AbeBooks customers ("Customers") to purchase new, used, rare and out-of-print books and other items such as maps, sheet music, manuscripts and ephemera (collectively, "Items") from booksellers around the world ("Booksellers") acting on their own behalf.

2. Who Can Be a Customer?
Only individuals and businesses that are legally entitled to enter into legally binding and enforceable contracts may register to be a Customer and purchase books through the Web sites. Customers must comply with all applicable laws. All information submitted by Customers through the Web sites, including registration information, payment information, and transaction-related information must be true, accurate, current and complete.

Once you have registered as a Customer, you are referred to as a "Customer", "You", "Your" or "Yourself" for the purposes of this agreement.

3. How This Works
The Web sites are a marketplace for Booksellers and Customers. Customers buy Items from Booksellers, not from AbeBooks. Customers authorize AbeBooks to act as their limited representative solely to conclude on their behalf sales contracts directly between them and the Booksellers for sales of Items on the Web sites. AbeBooks only facilitates transactions, and does not enter into any sale or purchase contract in its own name on behalf of Customers or Booksellers. AbeBooks is not the agent of the Booksellers. Only Customers and Booksellers (not AbeBooks) are responsible for all transactions through the Web sites and the terms and conditions of all transactions.

Orders placed through the Web sites are forwarded to the selected Bookseller by electronic mail (e-mail) for acceptance and fulfillment by the Bookseller.

A variety of payment methods (including credit cards) may be used to purchase on our Web Sites.  Passwords must be kept confidential and not disclosed to or shared with any other person. You are solely responsible and liable for any use and misuse of Your password and for all activities that occur under Your password. You must immediately notify AbeBooks of any unauthorized use of Your password, or if You know or suspect that Your password has become known to any other person. AbeBooks is not under any obligation to verify the actual identity or authority of the user of any password.

4. Buying on Behalf of a Third Party
If a Customer places an order on behalf of another person, this third party's contact information must be communicated to the Bookseller, along with the Customer's information. A bookseller is not required to communicate with the person that an order was placed on behalf of.

5. Returns
If you are dissatisfied with your purchase, you are eligible for a refund within 30 days of the estimated delivery date. Refer to the AbeBooks 30-Day Returns Policy for details on how to initiate returns.

If you need to return a book that was purchased on your behalf, the Customer who made the purchase will also have to initiate the return.

6. Misprints and Orders
Although AbeBooks strives to provide reliable and current information on the Web sites, misprints or other errors may occur. AbeBooks reserves the right to change information on the Web sites at any time and from time to time without any notice or liability to You or any other person.

Items listed on the Web sites are subject to availability, and may not be available when ordered or afterwards.

The Items offered on the Web sites are invitations for purchase orders, and shall not constitute binding offers to sell. Your properly completed and delivered order form constitutes Your offer to purchase the Items referenced in your order. Your order will be accepted only if and when the Bookseller sends an order acceptance and shipping notice to Your e-mail address.

7. We Respect Your Privacy
Your personal information will be collected and saved by AbeBooks. All data and information collected from You by AbeBooks is treated confidentially respecting the applicable laws on data protection and in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which may be viewed by clicking here.

8. Warranty Disclaimer and Liability Exclusion and Limitation Clauses
Since AbeBooks is not a party to any transactions through the Web sites, AbeBooks does not give any representation or warranty regarding any transactions or any of the Items. AbeBooks has no control over or liability for the quality or legality of the Items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, or the ability of Booksellers to sell Items.

The Web sites are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, and without any representations, warranties or conditions of any kind, whether express or implied, and including without limitation implied conditions, warranties or representations of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, performance, durability, security, availability, or accessibility, all of which are hereby disclaimed by AbeBooks to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Regardless of the nature of the claim or the reasons for the loss and damages, AbeBooks' liability is limited to foreseeable and typical damages. AbeBooks will not under any circumstances be liable to You for any loss of use, loss of production, loss of income or profits (anticipated or otherwise), loss of markets, economic loss, special, indirect or consequential loss or damage or punitive damages, whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of law or equity, arising from, connected with, or relating to the use of the Web sites by You unless it concerns the loss of life, injury of body and/or physical health.

In no event will AbeBooks' total liability to You or any other person for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, and costs, whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of law or equity, and regardless of any negligence or other fault or wrongdoing by AbeBooks or any person for whom AbeBooks is responsible, exceed the lesser of US$25 or the purchase price of the Item that is the subject of the claim.

The exclusion of certain warranties and the exclusion or limitation of certain liabilities is prohibited by law in some jurisdictions. Such limitations may apply to You. The warranty disclaimer and liability exclusion and limitation clauses survive indefinitely after the termination of this agreement.

9. Legal Claims
For all disputes between AbeBooks and you or any other person arising from, connected with or relating to the Web sites, this Agreement, transactions facilitated or conducted through the Web sites, Items ordered or purchased through the Web sites, dealings between You and AbeBooks, or any related matters or any legal relationship associated therewith or derived therefrom ("Disputes"), the relevant parties will attempt to find a reasonable solution least onerous to the parties. If a Dispute cannot be resolved by the parties, then the Dispute must be resolved before the Courts of British Columbia sitting in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and you hereby irrevocably submit and attorn to the original and exclusive jurisdiction of those courts in respect of all Disputes. Proceedings regarding Disputes must be commenced in a court of competent jurisdiction in the City of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada within six (6) months after the Dispute arose, after which time any and all proceedings regarding the Dispute are barred. Any shorter time limit provided by statute law remains unaffected.

10. How Do You or AbeBooks End This Agreement?

AbeBooks may at any time and in its discretion immediately suspend or terminate (in whole or in part) your permission to use the Web sites without any notice or liability to You or any other person.

If this agreement or your permission to use the Web sites is terminated by You or AbeBooks for any reason, this agreement will nevertheless continue to apply and be binding upon You in respect of Your prior use of the Web sites and prior purchases of Items through the Web sites and anything connected with, relating to or arising from those matters.

11. Changes to Web sites, Policies and Procedures, and this Agreement
AbeBooks may, in its discretion, change, suspend or terminate, temporarily or permanently, the Web sites or any part of them at any time, for any reason, without any notice or liability to You or any other person.
